One
of the requirements for you to use Samsung services embedded into your Samsung
device is a valid Samsung Account. Basically, you will be asked to sign in to
your Samsung account first, in order to have access to different Samsung
services including Samsung Hub, Samsung Link and WatchON. Aside from having
access to multiple Samsung services, your Samsung account will also allow you
to back up your personal information and have it restored to any other
supported device, if necessary.

Typically,
you will be asked to create a Samsung account during the initial setup of your
device. In case you skipped it, you can follow this quick guide we created to
help you create or sign in to your Samsung account.

Here’s
how you do it:

Step
1:
Touch Menu from the Home screen of your device. You will then be
prompted with a pop-up list.

Step
2:
Locate and touch Settings from the pop-list items to proceed. A new
screen will appear, containing Connections, My Device, Accounts and More
tabs.

Step
3:
Touch the Accounts tab. This will lead you the the My accounts
screen.

Step
4:
From the My accounts options, locate and touch Add account.

Step
5:
From the Add account options, touch Samsung account. The Samsung
account screen will show up next.

Step
6:
Touch the Create new account button to proceed.

Step
7:
The next screen contains some void fields for you to fill up with valid
information. Among the required information you need to provide include your Email,
Password, Date of birth, Last Name and Zip Code. If you want to keep
posted on the latest events concerning Samsung services, then you may also mark
the Receive newsletter checkbox for you to get regular updates on the
latest features, contents and services available for your device.

Step
8.
After you input all necessary details on each field, touch the Sign Up
button to proceed.

Step
9. The Terms
and Conditions screen will appear afterwards. Touch/mark the checkbox
before the “I accept all the terms above” once you’ve read all the terms
and conditions.

Step
10.
Touch the Agree button to continue.

Step
11.
After you touch the Agree button, you will see the screen with your Samsung
email account above the “Check for verification email” button. You need
to check the verification email first so you can activate your new Samsung
account. Do this by touching the button that tells you to do so.

Step
12.
An information screen will then show up after you activate your Samsung
account. Just touch the Confirm button to complete the process.

You
will then be routed back to the Account screen after doing so, which means you
now have a valid Samsung account to sign in to and have access to any Samsung
service you wanted to avail of.

Important
notes:

There is only
one Samsung account supported on every email address.

You can also use
your Facebook account to sign up for a Samsung account. Just touch Use
your Facebook info to log in to your account and any matching fields will
auto-populate.
